Abstract: CFRP is extensively utilized in various structural components across aerospace, rail transportation, and clean energy sectors, owing to its advantages of light weight, high strength, and near-net-shape capability. However, the non-homogeneous and anisotropic nature of CFRP presents significant challenges in achieving high-quality and efficient machining. This paper systematically reviews the advancements in CFRP ultrasonic vibration-assisted milling equipment and intelligent machining. It outlines the different types of ultrasonic vibration-assisted milling equipment and their performance, followed by an in-depth discussion on the design, manufacturing, and performance testing of these tools. The paper introduces the design and simulation principles of ultrasonic transducers for various application scenarios and analyzes the impact of ultrasonic action on CFRP. Additionally, it explores the influence of ultrasonic frequency, amplitude, process parameters, and fiber orientation angle on milling forces, temperature, tool wear, and surface quality. The paper also discusses the application of new transducers in the industry and how ultrasonic vibration-assisted machining is evolving into an era of intelligent and adaptive ultrasonic milling. Furthermore, the technological advancement of adaptive amplitude regulation is proposed. Finally, it summarizes the current state of research on CFRP ultrasonic vibration-assisted milling equipment and intelligent machining and offers future perspectives.
